Create Request:

message Create{Entity}Request {
  string name = 1 [(validate.rules).string = {min_len: 1, max_len: 255}];
  uint64 project_id = 2 [(validate.rules).uint64 = {gt: 0}];
}

Update Request:

message Update{Entity}Request {
  uint64 id = 1 [(validate.rules).uint64 = {gt: 0}];
  string name = 2 [(validate.rules).string = {min_len: 1, max_len: 255}];
}

Get Request:

message Get{Entity}Request {
  uint64 id = 1 [(validate.rules).uint64 = {gt: 0}];
}

List Request:

message List{Entities}Request {
  uint64 offset = 1;
  uint64 limit = 2 [(validate.rules).uint64 = {gte: 1, lte: 100}];
}

List Response with Pagination:

message List{Entities}Response {
  repeated {Entity} {entities} = 1;
  PaginationMeta meta = 2;
}

message PaginationMeta {
  uint64 total = 1;
  uint64 offset = 2;
  uint64 limit = 3;
}

Strings:

string name = 1 [(validate.rules).string = {min_len: 1, max_len: 255}];
string email = 2 [(validate.rules).string = {email: true}];
string uuid = 3 [(validate.rules).string = {uuid: true}];
string status = 4 [(validate.rules).string = {in: ["active", "inactive"]}];

Numbers:

uint64 id = 1 [(validate.rules).uint64 = {gt: 0}];
uint32 count = 2 [(validate.rules).uint32 = {gte: 0, lte: 1000}];

Optional Fields: Omit validation or use ignore_empty: true

REST patterns:

• POST /v1/{entities} - Create
• GET /v1/{entities}/{id} - Get
• PUT /v1/{entities}/{id} - Update
• DELETE /v1/{entities}/{id} - Delete
• GET /v1/{entities} - List

Path variables:

rpc Get{Entity}(Get{Entity}Request) returns (Get{Entity}Response) {
  option (google.api.http) = {
    get: "/v1/{entities}/{id}"  // {id} matches field in request
  };
}

message Get{Entity}Request {
  uint64 id = 1;  // Extracted from URL path
}

Query parameters (for GET/DELETE): All request fields not in path become query params

Request body (for POST/PUT): Use body: "*" to send entire request as JSON body

Required imports:

import "google/api/annotations.proto";
import "validate/validate.proto";
import "google/protobuf/timestamp.proto";  // If using timestamps

1. Format proto files:

   make contracts-format
   

2. Lint proto files:

   make contracts-lint
   

3. Generate code:

   make contracts-generate
   

4. Check for breaking changes:

   make contracts-breaking
